The voice of other advocates trying to influence how we farm is continuing to grow. It is important that dairy farmers are equipped with the knowledge and tools they need to educate, inform and help influence others. Join the UDV, farmers and industry experts and explore how farmers can better advocate for themselves, their communities and the dairy industry. The Conference will commence with the Annual Young Farmer Breakfast and finish with the UDV President’s Dinner that evening.

The meeting will also receive reports and deal with member resolutions.

The window for submitting Conference Resolutions and nominations for Policy Council is now closed.

UDV is guided by a group of elected dairy farmer members representing our 10 dairy regions - the UDV Policy Council. UDV Policy Council meets regularly to discuss priority issues for the dairy industry and guide the organisational policy response.

The term of office is 2 years with a maximum of 4 terms. Each year half of Council comes up for election.

The following UDV positions fall vacant this year;

Region 2 (West Goulburn);
Region 4 (North East Valleys);
Region 6 (South Gippsland);
Region 8 (Colac & districts);
Region 10 (Wannon); and
UDV President.

All voting members of the UDV are eligible to nominate for office and support a nomination for office. An election will be held if more than one nomination is received. All voting UDV members will be eligible to vote.
